The first side here is Subramanium, a band I know nothing about and any googling just brings up some Hindi/Yogi nonsense.  I guess they have a doomy/black metal thing going on, not bad but nothing worth composing a long form Civil War-style letter over.  The reason I have this is the other side, the U.S. Christmas track "Queen of the World."  Good song, a driving rocker - it had been a while since I had listened to this old version of the band when they were putting the really heavy Hawkwind-style synths over everything (only frontman & guitarist Nate Hall is still with the band as of the writing of this missive).
